Re: The Phoenix Thread!

Eat plenty of potassium beforehand so your calves don't cramp & wake you up in the middle of the night. (I've learned this the hard way from physical activity a fraction of what you're going to put yourself through.)

TOMMY VISIT EXTRAVAGANZA

where:the grapevine in old town scottsdalewhen: friday, march 1st at 7pmdetails: no cover, but if you want to sing bring a few bucks cash to tip the MC. there is alcohol & food. i am shooting for the large table in the back of the bar by the bathrooms since we can still hear each other talk, but also hear the karaoke. if you sit in the main area, it's too loud to chat.

hope to see you all there!

Re: The Phoenix Thread!

well i'd like to say that my first tough mudder was a success! i did way better than i thought i would! i finished the entire course (11 miles, 21 obstacles) in 2 hours and 31 minutes, while my friend did it in 1 hour and 40 minutes. the course had 6 water/first aid stations spread through out the course, they also provided bananas and clif bars which came in handy because my legs began to cramp in the last mile.

Re: The Phoenix Thread!

i like the article, but it's a bit sensationalist. a major power grid failure in a city that relies on heaters would be a big deal too. it's not like everyone has fireplaces or that we want to chop down all the trees to go back to that. also, the wind can be an issue, but really only in the summer. it's not like buildings are falling down left and right. and "increasing" storms is a claim i'd like proven. i remember much more frequent and severe monsoons/dust-storms NOT HABOOBS, NOT A PHOENIX TERM YOU FUCKING TWATS THAT USE THIS STUPID WORD when i was a kid because there was less development around me. the further you get into the developed areas of the city, the less pronounced the monsoons are. but they are right, water is a major issue we pretty much ignore here in phoenix.

also the fires were started by PEOPLE (arsonists & campers), not nature. not the state trying to burn itself up. any goddamned forest is subject to a fucking fire.
